Westford Animal Hospital

It's more than just vaccines. Have you ever heard someone say, “I’ll only take my cat to the doctor if she looks sick?” or “My dog doesn’t get sick.” Nearly every pet will experience at least one illness in his lifetime. Often, they have many. And while people can voice their concerns to their doctors, pets often hide illness until it has been present for many months. We know that treating diseases early leads to better outcomes and lower costs. Preventative care focuses on catching problems before they might be obvious. This is why we want to see you and your pet at least every year, or every 6 months for seniors, regardless of whether he is “acting sick.”
